My family loved this! Here is the even easier thing that I did, I used pre-made pie crusts! I just sprinkled sugar on the top of the crust before baking and it made a world of difference. (The pre-made, rolled crusts {not the already in the pan kinds} just taste too savory, so I add sugar on top. My family and friends want this pie all the time. Make it extra special with some fresh, homemade whipped cream on top.

Turned out well and was tasty. I did not use the nectar since I am basically using up stuff out of my freezer and didn't have any on hand. Next time I may substitute a little tapioca for some of the flour/cornstarch, as we could taste the flour/cornstarch some and would rather not. As an experienced cook, I can't imagine what went wrong with the folks who said theirs turned out hard and rubbery. The texture of the filling was perfect!

Don't know what some people did wrong (perhaps used low grade ingredients?, but this came out rather nicely. I will admit that I didn't add all the nectar the recipe calls for but liked the crust none-the-less.

I followed the recipe for the filling perfectly and kept thinking to myself, this is a lot of flour and a lot of cornstarch for the amount of strawberries. I followed the recipe anyway and low and behold, my instincts was right.

I had let it cool thoroughly before cutting into it to serve to my guests and it was like cutting into hard gelatin. I was too embarrassed to serve it to my guests.

This pie is my easy go-to pie for everything and it always pleases! I keep the ingredients on hand to make for unexpected events, you look like a pro showing up places with a pie- but it's so easy to do! I've also had trouble finding the nectar, but I find that it tastes great without it, or I just mix some of the excess juices from the strawberries in with the egg wash. I've made this pie a million times, and it hasn't gone wrong yet.

I love this recipe! I usually omit the strawberry nectar in the crust- I have found that it tastes just as great without it and it's sometimes hard to find! This is one of those pies that I keep all the ingredients around just in case I need a pie. It's always a favorite!

I found this recipe very easy..I did however alter it. I use 1 c of sugar and I omitted the cornstarch. I added 1 cup of fresh strawberries along with the frozen ones..and I also added a spinkle of cinnamon. I did make my own crust too. I let it rest overnight before cutting into it and it was perfect.
It was incredible. I am thinking of making it for July 4th..

Looked beautiful and tasted delicious both times I made it! I used fresh strawberries instead of frozen. I sliced them in half the night before and let them sit in the flour/cornstarch/sugar mixture overnight in the fridge. I couldn't find strawberry nectar, so I used strawberry-kiwi juice. In the future, I would probably skip the juice in the crust; I don't think I could taste it. And for an even easier prep, I would probably buy frozen pie crusts too. My pies were completely cooled before serving and I didn't have any problems with the filling being runny or white and gooey. Our guests raved - and they weren't just being polite.

I have made this pie 3 or 4 times. It is very delicious but the key is letting it cool for a while before serving! I have made it in the morning and have served it in the evening and it comes out great. Last time I made it for a potluck and I took it over after just cooling for 1 hour and it was very runny. You must make it well in advance. It even tastes better the next day!
